Update 5/20/2022: Went here yesterday for takeout for dinner. Ordered over the phone as follows: Chicken with mixed vegetable combo with white rice, Chicken with brocoli with pork fried rice, Orange chicken with all white meat, and pan fried wontons. All for $49.00/ $50.00 for 3 people! Went home, opened the bag, and found that they forgot to add the white rice to my combo! not again! Also, the food seemed a little bit salty. The pan fried wontons were okay tho, and the white rice that my dad had was also okay (and luckily was able to have some of his white rice!) Understand it happens, but this is the 2nd time that they screwed up the order. Anyways, maybe i'll be back to try this again! Update 5/3/2022: This is a 1st for them. Went here yesterday for dinner, i ordered the pan fried wontons, orange chicken with all white meat, a eggroll and the chicken with mixed veggies combo. Everything else came out okay, but we were given FRIED Wontons instead. The person who i placed the order with even went over with me the order, but somehow missed that i suppose. I understand it happens, but we didn't really care for the fried wontons. For a monday night they also was less busy, and food was ready quicker. may be back.
Before i start, i've been here pre and post pandemic. My family and i get chinese food here as our other place to go that is in the area can be busy. We've gotten food here tons of times before. Today, we needed dinner, so we decided on Chinese food- called our usual place, but they were busy to accomdate a request that is usually done all the time. We ordered Orange Chicken with all white meat, pan fried wontons, Chicken with brocoli combo, and the Chicken with mixed veggie combo with white rice. Food was ready on time, and was delicious. Will be back sometime again! Also cash only- but i feel that it's...
Read moreMy favorite Chinese takeout in the area! It's fairly standard for this type of restaurant with a basic menu that goes along with it.
A standout is their Singapore Chow Mei Fun. It's got a really great curry flavor and a little bit of kick to it in the form of spicy heat.
The main thing that makes Wah Mei rise above the rest of the local Chinese takeout is that their different dishes actually have unique flavors. Too often these joints have a "brown" sauce and a "clear/white" one and a "sweet" one. Sesame chicken? Use the sweet. General Tso? Sweet + some chili pepper.
With Wah Mei the kungpao and cashew chickens actually taste different from each other!
I highly recommend if you're in the mood for some great Chinese takeout. The roast pork lomein is...
Read moreOrdered a basic dish, general tso and pork fried rice. The rice was very salty and the chicken was undercooked and its outer fried shell offered no firmness. Maybe they never do this but they did today and all I can say is wah mei indeed 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ I called in the order and the place was not even busy when I arrived... so dont get back to me in the comments with excuses as to why the chicken was undercooked. Lucky house in the Shoprite plaza isn't the best... but when it comes to this dish which is pretty simple, I dont usually feel the need to worry about salmonella. On top of all that... not a single soy,duck sauce, utensil, or napkin was included in the bag. Thank God Tosco's next door doesn't suck like...
